Whats the Craic?: Where's Nelly? I mean... Nessie

This morning the 11 of us met at 7:45 to hop on a bus for a 12 hour tour of Scotland. We were in for a long day, but there was promise of some awesome sights, and maybe a little monster hunting?
Our first stop was about an hour in, we were told there was a shop where we had to go for breakfast (we also heard this place had the best pie).... We got there and the name of the cafe was Mohr Bread. I needed no more convincing. The bread looked wonderful, but we were really interested in this pie we had heard so much about... only to find out we had a few definitions of pie. Scotland pie does not contain fruit, chocolate, or sweets. What we found at Mohr bread was shepherds pie, haggis pie, and some more meat filled pies... I had all but given up hope until I saw macaroni and cheese pie. For breakfast? Sold.

** Note the pancakes in the window. They are premade. The same goes for Ireland. They are packaged and sold in stores. I have yet to try them, but they always look good!

After the pie, it was back on bus until our next stop, Loch Lomond & Trossachs National Park

During the bus riding portions of the day our bus driver Duncan gave us background on Scotland and played traditional Scotish music... Most of us slept through a good portion of the morning information... oops. But we all woke up when we reached Glencoe Scottish Highlands. This was by far my favorite part of the day, and here is why...
